Chapter 3289: Chapter 3289: Left Again? Are You Sure?
He came from a prominent clan and knew that some people had this hobby of burying their treasures underground, then planting a tree over it as a symbol of wealth.
Of course, if one day the family fell into decline, they could dig up these treasures and make a comeback.
Upon hearing this, Ninth Senior Brother glanced again at the people digging up trees and was speechless.
If it were him, he definitely wouldn’t bury treasure under some unknown tree; at least, he would find a precious tree, one that wouldn’t make others suspect anything was buried beneath.
“That tree? It’s not even as valuable as the two outside the door,” he muttered.
“That’s because they couldn’t get the two trees outside the door.”
Min Yi rolled his eyes and replied irritably. He could hear the sounds of people digging outside; those two trees had long been snatched by others.
So, if they couldn’t get the good ones, they could only settle for the less desirable ones and try their luck.
What if there’s something good under this tree too?
“Why worry about them? What we want is this bed. If we don’t move it soon, it might be discovered.”
With Min Yi’s reminder, Ninth Senior Brother came to his senses and stopped thinking about the people digging up the trees. They quickly moved the bed back so they would have a place to sleep at night.
“Let’s go, let’s go. These beds should be enough, right?”
To move more beds, they even called their junior sisters to help. However, the junior sisters went to another house to make their target smaller and less noticeable.
It was fortunate that many of these people came from elsewhere, specifically waiting to take leftover items from people moving away. No one knew anyone.
“Almost done, aren’t there other people too?”
Min Yi thought that Qian Yizheng and his brother were also here to help, so it should be enough. When the time came, the two of them could share a bed; they were kids and could squeeze together.
…
“Gone again? Are you sure?”
The Evil Cultivation Leader heard the report from his subordinate and was puzzled.
They had just entered the city, and now they’ve left again? What did those people come for, to tease them?
Weren’t they supposedly Sect Disciples? Would those self-proclaimed righteous Sect Disciples watch the people of Rock City suffer and leave without helping?
“I’m sure, Leader.”
The subordinate nodded with certainty.
“Their Beast Cart and Horse Carriage left with a family. The gatekeepers saw them leave because that family was backed by a prominent clan, so we didn’t dare stop them.”
Blocking that family might bring the prominent clan’s wrath upon them.
Even though they didn’t fear much, being targeted was quite a hassle. The entire Rock City was now under their control, and it could take a lot of time.
“So they were people from a prominent clan, there to pick up that family?”
The leader stroked his chin, speculating that some prominent clans were not worth provoking.
“Weren’t they described as Sect members? How did they turn into people from a prominent clan? Did you see clearly before?” he asked, frowning.
“I…”
The subordinate didn’t dare say whether he saw correctly or not, fearing a reprimand in any case.
“At first, they looked like Sect people, but on second thought, they could also be clan guards. The demeanor of those people is quite similar, it’s my mistake for confusing Sect Disciples with clan guards.”
